Unregister deafult header images – HOW?

I’m trying to remove the default image that is proposed in the customizer.

In my mind this should work:
```
function df_remove_header_images() {
	unregister_default_headers('default-image');
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'df_remove_header_images', 11 );
```
I’m running it in my child theme functions.php – it doesn’t do anything…

Any ideas? Thanks!

Does WordPress run the Child Theme functions.php file first? If it does, the ‘register_default_headers’ function won’t have been ran yet from the parent theme http://themes.svn.wordpress.org/twentyseventeen/1.4/inc/custom-header.php

Do you need to use the ‘after_setup_theme’ hook? https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/after_setup_theme

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately that runs over my head…

There is a function called unregister_deafult_headers()

How can I use it?

Yes, it must be called after the register_deafult_headers()

I’m not sure how… Is there another hook?

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

My bad, you can ignore what I meant above because you’re already doing it.

The only other suggestion would be to check the order of that ‘after_setup_theme’ hook. As the order is not explicitly set in the parent theme, try installing this plugin to see if it exposes the order: https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar-actions-and-filters-addon/

Thanks for the suggestion.

The function that’s registerring the default headers has priority 10.

What am I missing? Am I using the wrong key? It seems to be registered as ‘deafult-image’

Yea I don’t see what’s wrong too, other than the priority number. How did you get to “10” as the priority when the parent theme doesn’t set the priority on its ‘register_default_headers’ function?

How?? I installed the plugin you told me to…

It says the parent theme function has prio 10 and my function has prio 11.

Okay great, I didn’t know you installed the plugin. I’ll wait for someone else to respond who has more knowledge.

Thanks for your advice.

I’m not sure but it seems like TwentySeventeen doesn’t follow codex.

So much pain working with it… 🙁
